Last Wednesday was my last day at the Florida Lottery! I was sad to say goodbye to my co-working friends but was happy I got to say farewell to them in style.
They threw me a sweet goodbye party at work in our conference room and it was great to have a chance to see and chat with everyone. I think the thing I will miss the most is all of our nicknames. I'm pretty sure I have the longest "official" nickname in the office. They most likely had to shorten it to fit on the cake.
We also had a post-work goodbye party in midtown filled with great memories and hilarious stories. I will miss my Lottery Ladies for the quality life chats and good laughs. They got me through a lot and I am so glad that I will be able to keep in touch and see them on my return trips to Tallahassee.
Normally my type A personality would have me a nervous mess leaving a job without another job in waiting, which can only mean that this odd sense of peace is God assuring us we are on the right track. And while I am unemployed, I haven't had much down time over the past few days. I have started packing up our house which required me to run all sorts of errands to find boxes and packing supplies. Needless to say - I am exhausted. But I am also appreciating the freedom to get things done and have been very productive.
We are officially moving two weeks from today. Time is flying. More exciting news to share tomorrow!
